The hardtop can be attached in less than 5 minutes. The scoop will be fully functional. The scoop was the hardest part of the conversion. A portion of the deck will be removable to allow the air scoop holes into the bilge area. Even with the pleasure version there is the front half of the top still on the boat for protection. The CRC conversion was inspiration for this boat.

We are installing scoops in the hatchs for the blower motors as they are too tall. We are using the new style areodynamic scoop with the air cutout in the back. We do not want to cut the hatches until the motors are set in place. Those 16:71 superchargers do not leave much room for error with the hatch fit.

Congrats, your conversion looks great so far.
If you chose to, you should be able to install the motors without putting the scoops on. They have done several with the same set up without scoops. In fact, we are not putting them on my new boat which will have a quadrotor setup which is the same height, but alot wider.
